Maybe stop testing truck drivers for weed residuals in their piss from the joint they smoked on their time off and you might get a shit ton of new applicants....

Pretty sure weed testing is
Pretty sure weed testing is not the root of this problem. It will be a long time before insurance companies will look the other way regarding weed usage and vehicle/machine operators.
A global pandemic and economic shutdown has consequences. The best solution to the problem is to get people vaccinated and quash the virus and get spending habits back to normal.

The Battle of Kursk was the largest tank battle in history, involving some 6,000 tanks - 2,000,000 troops, and 4,000 aircraft. It marked the decisive end of the German offensive capability on the Eastern Front and cleared the way for the great Soviet offensives of 1944–45 and their takeover of Eastern Europe

>>It will be a long time
Events like this will only speed up research and investments into AI. Machines aren't programmed to talk back, fight back, call off, change careers or stick it to the man with a strike. If it can be loaded / unloaded to or from anything,, AI will be doing it sooner than later. Big money wants what big money wants.
